Animation has come a long way from what it used to be. Animation is creating an illusion of motion using computer graphics. These days animation has new material, styles, techniques, and more. Animation has evolved from art by hand to digital art which makes animation faster and easier than doing everything by hand.

In this film they had to use a puppet to animate king kong in the movie, and everytime …show more content…

Traditional animators created the illusion of motion by drawing and coloring thousands of individual cels ( cel is short term for celluloid it’s a transparent sheet on which objects are drawn or painted for traditional, hand-drawn animation). 2-D and 3-D animation has come a long way from what it use to be. Animating in 2-D images is very similar to animating the flat drawings of a painted cel. Animating 3-D images is similar in many ways but a great deal more complex. Just as in 2-D animation, the computer doesn’t actually create a moving image. Instead, it makes a great many individual still pictures. To animate a racing car, for instance, the computer simply makes hundreds of different images of the car, each from a slightly different angle. Movie makers put the images onto film and run them through a projector, which creates the illusion of …show more content…

The similarities are the art styles, content/ entertainment, and materials used to create it (graphic tablet, websites,computers, etc). The art styles are usually very similar to the animation because graphic novels are usually based off the animation or vice versa except that graphic novels do not have motion or sound so there usually created by the same artist or someone who does a similar art style, content/ entertainment is basically the same reason as art style the content of graphic novels is similar to animation because the content is either based off the animation or the graphic novel, and the similar materials the use are graphic tablets, photoshop (used in a variety of ways), digital equipment, and many apps (applications)/ tools that you can use for animation and/or a graphic
